Elektromagnetischer Stromauslöser für einen elektrischen SchutzschalterElectromagnetic current release for an electrical circuit breaker

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen elektromagnetischen Stromauslöser für einen elektrischen Schutzschalter mit einer Magnetspule, einem beweglichen Anker und einem ortsfesten Magnetkern, der durch eine Stromanschlußklemme der Magnetspule gehalten ist.The invention relates to an electromagnetic current release for an electrical circuit breaker with a magnet coil, a movable armature and a stationary magnet core, which is held by a current connection terminal of the magnet coil.

Gattungsgemäße elektromagnetische Stromauslöser gemäß FIG 2 werden zur Erkennung von Überströmen, insbesondere von Kurzschlußströmen, bei konventionellen elektrischen Schutzschal- tern angewandt, um ein- und mehrpolige elektrische Verbraucher vor unzulässigen Betriebszuständen zu schützen. Diese Schutzschalter können Leistungsschalter, Motorschutzschalter und Leitungsschutzschalter sein. Sie müssen Überströme je nach geltender Vorschrift innerhalb bestimmter Ansprechgren- zen abschalten. Zu diesem Zweck sind die Stromauslöser mit den zu öffnenden Kontakten der Schutzschalter dahingehend gekoppelt, daß sie diese als Reaktion auf einen Überstrom- bzw. Kurzschlußstrom öffnen und ggf. offenhalten. Gemäß FIG 2 sind solche Stromauslöser 1 aus einer Magnetspule 2, einem Spulen- gesteil 3 mit einer Führungsröhre 4, einem beweglichen Anker 5, einem ortsfesten Magnetkern 6, einer Feder 7 und einer Stromanschlußklemme 8 zusammengesetzt. Das Spulengestell 3 mit der Führungsröhre 4 besteht aus isolierendem Material. Um das Spulengestell 3 ist die Magnetspule 2 aufgewickelt oder aufgesteckt. Der in der Führungsröhre 4 beweglich gelagerte Anker 5 bewegt sich entgegen der Federkraft der Feder 7 als Reaktion auf einen Überstrom- bzw. Kurzschlußstrom. Hierdurch wird über entsprechende mechanische Koppelglieder ein Öffnen der in der Strombahn befindlichen Kontakte erreicht. In die Führungsröhre 4 des Spulengestells 3 oder in die Anschluß- 2 klemme 8, wie in FIG 2 gezeigt, ist ein Magnetkern 6 eingepreßt. Der Magnetkern 6 ist ein Zusatzteil, das vorzugsweise im Inneren der Führungsröhre 4 gelagert ist, d.h. zumindest teilweise im Innenraum der Magnetspule 2.Generic electromagnetic current releases according to FIG. 2 are used to detect overcurrents, in particular short-circuit currents, in conventional electrical circuit breakers in order to protect single-pole and multi-pole electrical consumers against impermissible operating states. These circuit breakers can be circuit breakers, motor circuit breakers and circuit breakers. Depending on the applicable regulation, you must switch off overcurrents within certain response limits. For this purpose, the current releases are coupled to the contacts of the circuit breakers to be opened in such a way that they open and, if necessary, keep them open in response to an overcurrent or short-circuit current. According to FIG. 2, such current releases 1 are composed of a magnetic coil 2, a coil part 3 with a guide tube 4, a movable armature 5, a stationary magnetic core 6, a spring 7 and a current connecting terminal 8. The coil frame 3 with the guide tube 4 is made of insulating material. The magnetic coil 2 is wound or plugged around the coil frame 3. The armature 5, which is movably mounted in the guide tube 4, moves against the spring force of the spring 7 in response to an overcurrent or short-circuit current. In this way, opening of the contacts located in the current path is achieved via corresponding mechanical coupling elements. In the guide tube 4 of the coil frame 3 or in the connecting 2 terminal 8, as shown in FIG 2, a magnetic core 6 is pressed. The magnetic core 6 is an additional part, which is preferably mounted inside the guide tube 4, that is to say at least partially in the interior of the magnet coil 2.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen elektromagnetischen Stromauslöser der obengenannten Art teileminimiert und damit wirtschaftlich herzustellen.The invention has for its object to partially minimize an electromagnetic current release of the type mentioned above and thus economically.

Die Aufgabe wird dadurch gelöst, daß der Magnetkern und die Stromanschlußklemme einstückig ausgeführt sind.The object is achieved in that the magnetic core and the power connector are made in one piece.

Eine besonders kostengünstige Ausführungsform ist gegeben, wenn der Magnetkern und die Stromanschlußklemme als einstük- kiges Stanzbiegeteil gefertigt sind.A particularly inexpensive embodiment is provided when the magnetic core and the power connection terminal are manufactured as a one-piece stamped and bent part.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung wird im folgenden anhand einer Zeichnung näher erläutert. Es zeigen:An embodiment of the invention is explained below with reference to a drawing. Show it:

FIG 1 einen erfindungsgemäßen Stromauslöser und1 shows a current release according to the invention and

FIG 2 eine Ausführung eines bekannten Stromauslösers .2 shows an embodiment of a known current release.

Der elektromagnetische Stromauslöser 1 gemäß FIG 1 ist aus einer Magnetspule 2, einem Spulengestell 3 mit einer Füh- rungsröhre 4 aus isolierendem Material, einem beweglichen Anker 5, einem ortsfesten Magnetkern 6, einer Feder 7 und einer Stromanschlußklemme 8 als wesentlichen Elementen zusammengesetzt. Die Magnetspule 2 ist um das Spulengestell aufgewik- kelt oder darauf aufgesteckt und Bestandteil der Strombahn eines zu schützenden Verbrauchers. Der Anker 5 ist beweglich in der Führungsröhre 4 gelagert und reagiert auf einen Kurz- schlußstrom. Die Bewegung des Ankers 5 bewirkt über entsprechende mechanische Koppelglieder ein Öffnen von in der Strombahn befindlichen Kontaktstellen. Dabei bewegt sich der Anker 5 gegen die Kraftwirkung einer ebenfalls in der Führungsröhre 3 4 gelagerten Feder 7. Um eine steilere Kraftkurve des Stromauslösers 1 zu erhalten, ist in der Führungsröhre 4 des Spulengestells 3 ein ortsfester Magnetkern 6 angeordnet, der zusammen mit einer Stromanschlußklemme 8 für die Magnetspule 2 als einstückiges Teil gefertigt ist. Dieses Teil ist vorteilhafterweise als Stanzbiegeteil ausgeführt. The electromagnetic current release 1 according to FIG. 1 is composed of a magnetic coil 2, a coil frame 3 with a guide tube 4 made of insulating material, a movable armature 5, a stationary magnetic core 6, a spring 7 and a current connection terminal 8 as essential elements. The magnet coil 2 is wound around the coil frame or attached to it and is part of the current path of a consumer to be protected. The armature 5 is movably mounted in the guide tube 4 and reacts to a short-circuit current. The movement of the armature 5 causes corresponding mechanical coupling links to open contact points located in the current path. The armature 5 moves against the force of one also in the guide tube 3 4 mounted spring 7. In order to obtain a steeper force curve of the current release 1, a stationary magnetic core 6 is arranged in the guide tube 4 of the coil frame 3, which is made together with a power terminal 8 for the magnet coil 2 as a one-piece part. This part is advantageously designed as a stamped and bent part.
